Ridge Gourd Peel Rice – Kids Recipe

My mum always do Ridge gourd peel thogayal / Chutney. This is one of my favourite (surprised that is not on my space yet.. will post soon). When I make this at home my kids and my hubby doesn’t eat much.  I wanted to make as fried rice to see whether they find this out. I have added milk while making gravy but you can replace it with coconut milk. I love both the flavours. Everyone loved it and they didn’t find it out. Perfect way to include less favourite vegetable into your kids lunch / dinner
